Vladimir Putin did it via his agent Donald tRUmp.
RFK Jr. is like the guy you never wanted to have to partner with in science class. He thought he knew the answers and is ultimately the guy who would light his hair on fire, and now he's lighting all of HHS on fire.

Okay. I just came back to this and you arenโt calling these efforts resegregation yet, you absolutely should be
A president should be presiding and not ruling.
Vote.
> DOGE was completely indifferent to the effect their actions had on human beings,โ said Barnett Rubin, an Afghanistan expert DOGE is as bad as you could possibly have imagined.
Well, if I win the presidency, everyone hired after Jan 19 of this year are on probation and likely terminated. Classified systems would need to be redone top to bottom. Classified info prior to the new security regime would have to be considered compromised. And that's off the top of my head. :(
Ascension of a sane person to the presidency. In 408 days we'll elect sanity to Congress which will hogtie tRUmp. If the crazies continue to run Congress, it'll be serious SNAFU.
There ya go, using logic and debating skills. This is an emotional battle carried out by frightening people. You need to frighten people into believing that it's all okay now. (Don't ask me how tho.)
Fantasyland -- just like Reagan's Star Wars.
Germany's path was clear before September, 1939. It took him 6 years to get there from his acquisition of power. tRUmp may bluster a lot, but he has a lot of work to do before he can go around waging arbitrary wars.
The US isn't your enemy, except as a temporary agent of Putin / Russia. I know that 1,238 days is a really long time in the political realm, but we beg for patience. Dฬถoฬถnฬถaฬถlฬถdฬถ ฬถtฬถRฬถUฬถmฬถpฬถ Vladimir Putin is actually unpopular here.
As @peterhotezmdphd.bsky.social & I document in great detail in #ScienceUnderSiege (due out 9/9: www.barnesandnoble.com/w/science-un...), the New York Times is very much implicated in the false balance and "performative neutrality" that has enabled this moment. Here's a brief excerpt from the book:
I do not think that @NYTimes.com has turned a corner. I think that the current situation has become so egregious that _even_ the NYTimes cannot ignore it. They will again.
We did make threats in the 1950's. You chose to allow us to install radar stations instead of risking Ike ordering it done unilaterally. Canada kind of wanted them there anyway as part of NATO / NORAD.
Interested. I learned a tiny bit about the war of 1812. Anyway, we didn't start that war so you can't call defensive attacks "invasions." Ukraine has not "invaded Russia" recently. It was a counter attack. War is messy. SO, thank you. Bye.
If I recall correctly, that was in a place that was never called Canada. We're arguing about when US troops made a hostile entrance into a place called, "Canada."
In any event, Googling now, it seems the area was called "The Canadas" (upper and lower) at the time (1791 and later).
I did happen to remember that. "Oops."
I plead ignorance of the 1812 military campaigns. The only campaign I know about was this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=9CnP... Not exactly history. :)
"revolutionary war" โ "civil war" The former was 1775 to 1782.
Trump/RFK are decapitating our public health system, a pillar of American greatness. So Dem Govs should scour every corner of the law for creative new ways to defend their people from this madness. Dems should polarize this debate to the max. Thoughts on this here: newrepublic.com/article/1998...
He can sign such an "order." He cannot have it enforced.
The judge: "And so this doesn't quite line up with what I'm hearing from the government." We can no longer presume regularity from the government.
Donald tRUmp's DoJ has no honor.
DEVELOPING: Advocates are seeking a court order to block the Trump administrationโs effort to deport hundreds of unaccompanied minor children to Guatemala. Judge abruptly moved 3 pm hearing up to 12:30 after she was notified that some children โare in the process of being removed" today.
It isn't a sign of brilliance to accept one source of information without question. Russia Today underlies Fox, Newsmax et al.
"Again"? Canada wasn't a country when our revolutionary forces entered what is now Canada. Or, are you referring to @mmflint.bsky.socialโฌ's movie: www.rottentomatoes.com/m/canadian_b...
Donald tRUmp is under the sway of Vladimir Putin. His goal is to tear apart the United States and its Western allies so that Russia has room to ascend again. If Putin is successful, then China will have freer reign to ascend.
Also, "pew" that it was at issue at all.
Is he asking tฬถhฬถeฬถ ฬถRฬถeฬถpฬถuฬถbฬถlฬถiฬถcฬถaฬถnฬถ ฬถPฬถaฬถrฬถtฬถyฬถ Dฬถoฬถnฬถaฬถlฬถdฬถ ฬถtฬถRฬถUฬถmฬถpฬถ Vladimir Putin? They want the societal breakdown, so why would they?
Too much variance. 50/50 by New Year. He could last until the mid-terms (408 days). To the end of his term (1,238 days) -- not likely. To the end of the term after that? HA! (Plus, it's unconstitutional.)
Not even his doctor knows to extreme detail. We all know that he is in ill health. And that he's not dead yet.
True, but for the fact that the foreclosure fees are highly profitable. If the equity is insufficient to cover those fees, then the bank made a mistake (or the market fell too much). SO: if there is a reduced return on foreclosed mortgages, it wouldn't be very significant. Anyway, thank you 4 info
TY. _None_ of the reporting I've seen mentions this. Seems like an important detail. Still, for criminality, wouldn't they need to prove that she knew she could not assert that "this house _is_ my primary and that house _will be_ my primary"? Still seems overreachy.
Also a legal issue / question: what should one do if you wish to buy two homes and live 50% of the time in each? How does one choose? Based on voter registration (you cannot register twice), or what? I see it as muddy. Aside: Why is there a reduced rate for primary residence anyway?
That's true, but DoJ isn't asserting that. The _only_ assertion is that there are two applications with claims of primary residence. DoJ is not releasing any more details.
With a picture taken today by Getty Images; once again: do I know WTF is going on with Trump? I do not. Do YOU know WTF is going on with Trump? You do not All I know is he has never voluntarily STFU for five days since he was born
You cannot give up here any more than you can give up on climate change: GIVING UP IS NOT AN OPTION :) Thank you. (Do you still post images to Flickr?)
I donโt know if the law and constitution will get us out of this or not. And neither do you, so please stay the hell out of the way of those who are trying to save it.
Hey, you ๐ twatwobble! Pretending to be ded and invading Venezuela isnโt distracting us! Release the goddamn #EpsteinFiles.
If she bought a property as an investment property and never lived there, then, yes, it is minor fraud. However, all Bondi is asserting is that there are two mortgage applications marked "primary residence" and asserting that that is sufficient. It's not.
If the dots are too far apart, Republican leadership (electeds) are unable to connect (or mis-connect) them.
??? How much money does tRUmp make off of Jack Daniels' sales? Right. That's how much he cares. So, what is your point here?
BREAKING: A federal judge has *blocked* the Trump administration from abruptly deporting 600 unaccompanied Guatemalan children โ perhaps within a matter of hours โ granting an emergency restraining order after advocates called the plan illegal + dangerous. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
The very definition of spineless.

Eff Kristen Welker. Everyone (as in _everyone_) who buys a first home and, for whatever reason, moves their primary home by buying another, must either sell the old home or be a fraudster. This is an utterly stupid, made-up controversy.

I wonder why Trump imposed secondary tariffs only on India for buying Russian oil while not caring about all the other countries who buy Russian oil?
In Ghislaine Maxwellโs Justice Department interview, she comes off as pathetic, loathsome, and utterly lacking in remorse. The entire operation was damage controlโan attempt to exculpate President Trump from his own involvement with Jeffrey Epstein.
Just hoping, not asking
YES or NO?
Interesting. Putin won't stop until he is facing immediate ruination. Sooner is better than later, but we're being led by his puppet.
What I notice is that the image on the right is so heavily cropped and blown up that it's difficult to see the features clearly.
Jones: I want to bring theology into this because you have all these people that want to give thoughts and prayers. But I was a minister, and that is a form of theological malpracticeโwhen you pray for something you have the power to change.
Huh. Here, I thought it was all about getting money.
"This video isn't available anymore."
@USRepJimmyPanetta.bsky.social - can you please introduce national legislation? And how about signing on to articles of impeachment? It's past time for that, too.
If you buy a primary home with a mortgage and then move to a new home also with a mortgage, obviously you must either sell the first home or not declare the new home a primary residence. If you don't and keep both homes, you're a fraudster. QED
Say you buy a house. It's your primary residence. You say so on the mortgage application. Now you have a new job that requires living someplace else. You buy another house on your mortgage application you claim it as a primary residence. Should you update your original app or do you have to sell it?

"We are watching and we are taking names." This is where Pritzker has leveled up over his fellow Dems, by promising a future of accountability and retribution for the destruction Trump and his minions are doing to the constitutional order and our individual freedoms. newrepublic.com/post/199800/...
Putinistas, please. Alignment with tRUmp isn't treasonous unless it can be proven that the person knows tRUmp to be a traitor. If one is shown to be supporting Putin's agenda, however, ...
It's pretty straight forward: VBM ballots tend to favor Democrats. Voting for Democrats is clearly a bad thing, so outlawing it improves the right outcomes (Rebublicans uber alles).

It has to be so unambiguous that even the people paid to dispute blatant facts cannot dispute them. Willful misunderstanding is difficult to overcome.
Itโs not just that Congress allowed the CDC crisis. Key lawmakers, on your payroll, allowed it despite statements showing they believe RFKโs views on vaccines are wrong. RFK can say he is doing what he believes; the lawmakers canโt. open.substack.com/pub/steveins...

*ALL* sworn officers need to be readily identifiable excepting _only_ for undercover work. I do not think that these raids are "undercover."
With Republicans not saying anything other than mumbled tRUmpian platitudes, most everything speaks louder. We should still turn up the volume to drown them out entirely.
The Streets Are Speaking Louder Than Republicans
It will be forgotten, once tRUmp is dead and buried for a decade or two. But not before.
Trump is abusing the global economy like a personal stock market scheme. This manipulative prick is wrecking industries and pocketing power while Americans pay higher prices because of his idiotic tariffs. Of course, he never had that authority under IEEPA. He is the living embodiment of grift.
"side eye" -- that's what husbands are for. :)
The boundaries are being pushed _together_, not what's implied by "pushing the boundaries." The @NYTimes.com makes bad headline writers look really good.
